... DreamWorks Animation ... plans to put Lassie [the collie] back in the public eye, along with Mr. Peabody and Sherman, Rocky and Bullwinkle, and other decades-old characters ...

I get Rocky, Bullwinkle and the rest. They're cartoon characters. I even understand Scooby Doo. But a live-action collie dog? That a bunch of five-year-old kids (including me) used to watch on their parents' black-and-white Philcos?

Okay, so maybe it could work. If a panda practicing martial arts can score a global knockout, why not a collie?
